Effect of substitution of concentrate mixture on performance of dorper 50% crossbred sheep
Listed in ScienceDB
The experiment was conducted to evaluate the potential of dried brewer's grains (DBG) to replace concentrate mixture in growing 50% Dorper × Menz crossbred ram lambs fed native pasture hay as basal diet.
Description
The experiment was arranged in a randomized complete block design (RCBD) with five treatments and seven replications, and initial body weight and age were used for blocking. Ram lamb from each block was randomly assigned to one of the five treatments.
All sheep were fed native pasture hay (NPH) ad libtum at 20% refusal as a basal diet and supplemented with 400g Concentrate mixture (CM) (T1) or 300g DBG + 100 g CM (T2) or 200g DBG + 200g CM (T3) or 100g DBG + 300g CM (T4) or 400g DBG (T5). Natural pasture hay and total dry matter (TDM) intake were similar (P > 0.05) among the treatments. Substitution of 75, 50 and 100% of CM with DBG had greater (P < 0.001) body weight gain than 100% CM supplemented group, and substitution of 25% CM with DBG had an intermediate value.

The partial budget analysis revealed that T3 and T5 gave greater net returns of Birr 881.19 and 854.91 per head, respectively.
